Top 50 Gluten-Free Asian Dining Spots Across Illinois

Dedicated GF restaurant with the best bowls! I love the fan favorite.

Ashley Stillwell

I was highly impressed with this restaurant. If I could give more than 5 stars for service I would! We looked up reviews on this place and had chosen it because two of our road-trip party are celiac and we also have other allergies (soy and peanuts). The reviews reported that they dealt with that situation well. We were NOT disappointed. We explained our allergies and our server diligently ran back and forth to check with the kitchen. When we accidentally ordered something that included an allergy ingredient, she came out and let us know and gave us an alternative that would be safe for us. The chef actually made two of the meals from scratch so that it would be safe. All three meals were incredible! Hats off to the wonderful chef and server!

Michael Baron

Rice noodles and knowledgeable on gluten free broth and other items

Emma Sipora Tyler

Incredible meal! A new instant favorite for special ocassions or a fancy date night. My boyfriend has celiac disease (gluten free) and they had so many delicious gluten free options I was amazed (basically the entire a la carte menu). Great service, great drinks, gorgeous atmosphere. We'll definitely be back!

Katie McKee

Amazing food - I dream about the meal I’ve had here. The servers are always well informed and I’ve never felt weird about asking for celiac safe food!

Todd Nahigian

BIBIBOP is by far my favorite restaurant. I Am gluten-free and egg free and I love everything that they serve. The way they prepare the avocado, is the best I've ever tasted. When they introduced the crispy chicken, things even got better.

Katie Rylko

I've been wanting to try this place for some time and finally made it! I have to eat gluten free not by choice. This is literally the first place I've ever been to where I can eat everything on the menu! Never had this option before this is awesome now I just wish there were more locations this one is 30 minutes away and not in a direction I typically go. I ate here with my 10-year-old and 12 year old. We each got a bowl. The lemon turmeric rice did not disappoint. One of my kids tried the glass noodles they were very good and fun. My kids did not try any of the sauces they thought overall there was a slight spiciness to the dish without adding anything extra. I tried the teriyaki it was good. Oh and don't forget the free miso soup, lovely bonus. The broth is excellent.

Jazmin Saban

Excellent place, great option if you have any dietary restrictions, it is all dairy free, gluten free, I loved it! I recommend

Kay S

Stopped by here for a late lunch after a quick search for gluten free options in the area. So glad I did! Service was prompt and the staff member working the counter was super nice and helpful. Lots of great options, clean dining area and restroom, I will be coming back.

Japanese BBQ spot with a separate GF menu and GF soy sauce!

Cate Koziol

Completely gluten free menu.

Jay Shipinski

The visit was a mixed bag. It is nice they have a gluten free dedicated fryer for my wife's dietary needs. The help was friendly and inviting, and the food was tasty. Unfortunately, there were some issues with the order. We found the crispy cheddar curds had more vegetables than cheese curds and the portions were not consistent as our party of 4 had considerably less food than the party of 2 had next to us (served at the same time at the bar). We saw another order about 20 minutes later, and it was the same amount as our neighbors (a mound heaping over the bowl at the bar as well). We all ordered burgers, and my daughter's and my burgers were mixed up (fortunately we caught it before eating) and neither of us had the pickles as stated on the menu. Additionally, my burger was over cooked (previous reviews we saw heralded how cooking temperature was spot on). They did take it back, remade it, and it was fantastic. The menu is very limited (8 entrees) so one wouldn't expect the various mix ups. Is it worth a shot coming here again. Yes. The staff and food is good, so I will consider giving it another shot.

The miso soup was great and started the meal off on a high. Sadly the sushi course was disappointing. The fish was mediocre at best (saba and medai), uni was bland, avocado in my roll was not ripe. Too much rice on the nigiri and overcooked. Tea was tasty and refilled regularly. They had gluten-free soy and were communicative about gluten in dishes. Service was great. Sadly it was overpriced for the quality of the food being served. Won’t be going back.

Jamie Pitzen

Really enjoyed the tea leaf salad - had so many different dimensions of crunch and was really refreshing! Udon noodle dish was also delicious and a nice balance of sweet and spicy. Definitely coming back to try more! I also am gluten free and appreciated the menu items were marked.

Frank Weigel

Really loved that our server was very familiar with celiacs and could steer my wife.

Lucy Fiorito

Great food and I’ve never gotten a reaction from it

Megan Benjamin

A lot of gluten free options! Quite delicious, though some dishes are a bit small compared to others. The soup is easily 3 portions.

Mariah Schultz

Sunda Lunch Catering was great. Our group liked the Chicken, Tofu and LOVED the Pad Thai. Our Vegan/Gluten-Free guest appreciated all the options available including the individual salad. The delivery order drop off was smooth. Sam was super helpful and made sure to check in with me every step of the way ensuring our order was correct and set-up the way we wanted. Thank you again (Nicole) for all your help with coordinating! I will definitely keep Sunda in mind for future staff events.

Kathleen Bennett

Our favorite gluten free place!

Tangelo Dreams

We order thru Uber one my husband says orange chicken is great gluten-free chicken fried rice is great a nice change. I’ll never go back to any other type of Chinese food.

Jessica Nelson

Cute little Cafe. Was looking for a place that had a gluten free menu while visiting. Server was friendly and knowledgeable and reassured me that they had a seperate prep area and cooked gluten free food on a seperate grill. I ordered the steak sandwich and fruit cup. Little pricey for a sandwich that was more veggie than meat. Fruit had a funny taste to it, maybe because it was out of season. Husband ordered regular steak sandwich as well, it was in a pita. He liked it. Daughter ordered chicken club and thought it was very good. They also gave gluten free dessert. I did not indulge in dessert. Overall, not a bad place to eat. If in Chicago again I would definitely stop in. I have Celiac and did not get sick from eating here, so that is a bonus.

Matt Ebert

We initially picked this place because my wife is celiac and they had a lot of choices. We will absolutely be going back. The smothered fries and sushi we had as an appetizer were amazing. I had the chicken katsu ramen and it was so good. The noodles had great texture. The chicken was tasty and well cooked. Fully recommend.

Jacqueline Beaulieu

Absolutely delicious meal and fantastic service. Thank you to our waitress, Stella for great service and taking an amazing picture of our group. Gaijan was great with my gluten intolerance. Would 100% recommend.

Jeremiah Perkins

Amazing restaurant with a lot of options for gluten free and veg food. Try their frites and cucumbers!!!

Ally

Beautiful restaurant, great service, and everyone is so fast and so kind I always enjoy my time here and it is so delicious so many options for vegan, gluten free, vegetarian, and many other diet types! I love how versatile the menu is as well as how unique it is! It is certainly not your average sushi, it’s better!

Josie G

Love Big Bowl! It was awesome to find a Big Bowl location in Lincolnshire while traveling. As usual, I had the Chef’s Choice stir fry and it was delicious. It was my birthday, and our waiter brought out a candle with our gluten free chocolate cake dessert which was a fun feature. It’s always a treat eating here! Highly recommend to anyone who loves Thai food! Just wish they would bring back the build your own stir fry bar. It’s been gone since Covid.

Amy Nelson

So refreshing to find a gluten free quick eats spot

Jacob Austin

Great selection at affordable pricing. I would say this has the best value for price with great flavor, variety, and selection. Plus it has a great gluten free selection for celiac. Have yet to have something I didn't like! Specifically on the sushi, some of the rolls are a bit bland but, again, value wise you can get some fantastic gems at affordable pricing versus down the street for 2x or 3x the price. Every roll I've gotten was great quality and I've often specifically tipped the sushi chef.

Sarah W

The cutest cocktail bar with great GF options for Asian food! The staff are knowledgeable about celiac disease and cross contact. No dedicated fryer. I got the Mongolian beef and the cashew chicken which were both amazing

Rachel Young

100% gluten free

Tara Davis

Amazing food and can make most anything gluten free

Heidi Kirkman

Caitlan is a fantastic server! Very attentive. Food was great as always. We appreciate the attention to providing gluten-free options.

LAWRWS

We have been here 3x just this week. This place is UNREAL. 1st - support your local businesses. These bowls start to finish are fantastic. This is our new take out. The options, freshness, protein are all incredible. The sauces are very, very good ! There are so many options - it's very easy to mix it up and not always eat the same thing. Purple rice to vermicelli noodles are all outstanding as well as the free miso soup. Give this a place a try - it will not be your last ! Service is impeccable. Everyone I dealt with was 10 out of 10 stars. They really go out of their way as well as the nice portion sizes. I had a small minor snafu and they gifted me a free bowl which wasn't even necessary but very thoughtful of them. Skip Chipolte -- go to Bibibop Asian Grille. Overall very healthy, veg options and gluten free. Wished I knew of them sooner !!!!!!! 10 stars. Will be here for the 4th time this week because I am taking my husband there. Not sure how anyone could find one thing negative about Bibibop Grill.

Callie Bunker

Similar essence to a chipotle but for Korean food. The food was hot and fresh. The pork belly was incredible. Gluten free items are clearly labeled on the menu. You can either order at the counter or at the ordering kiosk. Will definitely be back to work my way through the menu!

Gabrielle Kamil

Outstanding vegan restaurant. I especially enjoyed the green curry and the gluten free dumplings. I wish I lived closer. I'd come every day.

Naida

Always a hit, best in town. I love that there is a dedicated gluten free menu. Highly highly recommend that you check it out.

Megan G

My husband and I ate dinner here on a Sunday and had a pretty good experience. I have gluten and dairy food allergies so I wanted to make sure I could get gluten free rolls and I was able to. The hostess was clueless and couldn’t even tell us if there were gluten free options, nor could she bother to put in the effort to hand my husband a menu when he asked. I wonder how many people with gluten allergies have not stopped here because of her since she was working during both our treks through the airport. Other than her terrible attitude, the waitress was very sweet and attentive and reassured us that the rolls could be made gluten free and the chefs were good about gluten allergies. She did mention that any of the rolls could be made gluten free and I believe the bowls can be gluten free also. We ordered 3 rolls to share (2 gluten free) and I had no issues at all. The portion size was large and the rolls were good- much better than supermarket sushi as other reviews have commented. They even had tamari. There wasn’t a lot of noise from people walking by and the chairs were pretty comfortable as well. If we have another layover at O’Hare while traveling, we will definitely be stopping again!

Samantha C. Sowa

Awesome place! So happy with all the options and that everything is gluten free!

Kim S

I'm happy to have found this place. I thought I would have to swear off gluten forever with my gluten allergy. But they accommodated my needs and walked away with a satisfied tummy.

Vince Demma

Great gluten free menu! The curry is delicious!

Chris Lesik

First time guests here , Zach made sure we were very welcomed . He explained everything in detail , he made the kids food requests happen with ease , and walked us through the menu to accommodate a gluten allergy . A+++++ will definitely be back ! Great experience all around .

Jaclyn O'Day

Yes, PF Changs is a chain but their food is consistently good and they have a gluten free menu. My favorite things to order are the gluten free chicken lettuce wraps, chang’s spicy chicken and the beef and broccoli. The chicken fried rice is also super yummy!

Michal Aharony

Great food, excellent service. Many gluten free options. I loved it! Highly recommend.

Emily Dailey

Dedicated gluten-free, delicious, and amazing prices, and incredible service! The employees here are so kind and everything tastes fresh.

Emily Brown

Gluten free choices ❤️💜 Fantastic spot for lunch or dinner. Friendly and welcoming staff! Highly recommend

Marina

I tried their cappuccino, pecan tart, ras malai macaroon and gulab jamun macaroon. Their macaroons are gluten free and they do offer alternative milk options. Their bakery is good but I loved the vibe more. It's very ethnic and Muslim-oriented (they have a prayer rug too MashAllah) and felt like a really nice spot in the area to hang at with your friends/family.

Mehul Gilani

Request and confirmed that food was gluten free, but was contaminated despite this. We had gluten free Rama noodles, gluten free basil friend rice, and the panag curry (which we confirmed was gluten free with the restaurant).

Raj Joshi

Cozy environment, great food and good service. We had a fulfilling lunch which included Tamarind noodles (chicken), chicken robata, salmon rolls, Yakitori Don with Jasmine tea on the side. Food was tasty and the portion size was appropriate. We will go back there again. I don’t believe they serve alcohol but that is fine. Great gluten free options. This is a gem of a place. You will not be disappointed.

Sammy Isaacson

I don’t eat here I’m gluten free and their food sucks along with the prices and service

Steve Bonner

Food is outstanding!!! They have a gluten free menu as well....lots of different dishes to choose from.
